Yahia Sinwar: Thriller with Hamas leader – Israelis investigate whether he is alive or dead

Isolated and without having contacted her executives for a long time is Hamas leader, Yahia Sinwar, with Israelis investigating the possibility of being killed by an Israeli army operation in . The fact that the Hamas chief, who is hiding in Gaza, has not communicated for some time, has caused an investigation by the Israeli security authorities into the causes of his silence. Sunday night (23.9. 24) There have been reports from Israeli media that Israeli security authorities are considering the possibility that Shinwar is dead, but there is no concrete evidence. However, according to a current report by the Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom, at this stage Israeli security services estimate that Sinwar is alive and uses hostages as a ‘human shield’. However, Israelis are exploring other scenarios, given the intensification of tunnel bombings in areas where Shinwar is believed to be hiding. At present, however, there is no evidence suggesting that Shinwar is dead, except for his prolonged silence. As the Israeli newspaper notes, throughout the Gaza war from October 7, 2023 until today, there have been important periods during which Shinwar remained out of communication, either because he was on the move or because he deliberately chose to discontinue contact for “strategic reasons”.
